Sweet Potato Shepherd’s Pie

Print Recipe

A healthy twist on a classic shepherd’s pie made with lean turkey and creamy sweet potatoes.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 2 cups mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, corn)
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp thyme
  • 1 tsp rosemary
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 cups sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1/4 cup milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large skillet, brown the ground turkey over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, cooking until softened. Stir in mixed vegetables, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper and cook for another 5 minutes.
  3. Boil sweet potatoes in a pot until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and mash with butter and milk until creamy.
  4. Spread the turkey and vegetable mixture in a baking dish. Top with the sweet potato mash evenly.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is slightly golden.
  6. Let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

For a cheesier version, sprinkle grated cheese on top before baking.
